Code p0410

So do you have a code p0410?If so you could have a leaking broken vacuum line to the combination valve on top of the AC compressor.Or the combination valve on top of the AC compressor might be bad and not holding vacuum.You can test it with a hand vacuum pump along with the vacuum source to the combination valve solenoid with the hand vacuum pump.That's the first thing I would check if you know the air pump is working.How do you know the ports in the head and the pipe going into the head are clear?

I will pass this info along to my friend that,has been working on my car. He has cleaned the pipe out I'm not sure about the ports.

How would we go about cleaning the ports?

Let's see about other things I mentioned first.Cleaning the ports in the head require removing the exhaust manifold and is labor intensive.

Ok. Thanks!

Your welcome keep me posted

Would that part be called something other then a combination valve? I can't seen to find a part with that name.

So was the combo valve on top of the AC compressor not holding vacuum and your looking for a replacement?They don't make aftermarket ones it's factory only.Let me know I have the part number.

Oh ok. It hasn't been checked yet I just wanted to know what kind of price I may be looking at.

Maybe 65 I haven't priced one in a while let me know what you find.

Do I need the part number so Saturn knows what I'm talking about?

The last Saturn dealer closed Oct of 2010 I will help you find one if you need it.

My friend said he is going to check around but may need a part number.

So again did it test bad or are you just trying to replace parts and hope it fixes it?Iam factory trained tech and know these cars well.Rent a hand vacuum pump from auto zone to test the combo valve and it's vacuum source.

Ok. I was finally able to have i checked and put onto a computer. The mechanic said it is a bad solenoid. Is this the same part you were talking about?

No that's the solenoid that turns the vacuum on to the combination valve I was telling you to see if it's holding vacuum.I highly doubt it's that solenoid I have never replaced one for that code.I seen people guess they are bad and replace them and still get the code back.It's going to be hard to find one there can't be that many new ones out there and there not going to make a aftermarket one.It way more likely that you have a bad combination valve or plugged up air injection ports or a bad vacuum supply line or something along those lines.The first thing I always check first is the vacuum supply line and the combination valve.that's mostly what I have seen set those codes.

That is what came up in the computer he put the car on that scans the whole car. I'm not quite sure what to do at this point.

No even the factory Saturn scan tool I used use when I worked for Saturn won't say oh you have a bad air injection solenoid.We can try to diagnosis it if your willing to work with me and follow my directions ?

I'm sorry apparently I was wrong. It is not the solenoid it is the valve.

I will get you the part number when I get home I have one of those valves for my car .I got mine on rock auto dot com.

Thank you!

There is a picture of the part is that the one that is bad?Also I took a picture of the part number if you type that into the part number box on rock auto dot com.Also try eBay use the part number in the search box.

That is the part. Had it tested again to make sure and it tested good. This is Jillian9 me ... I just have no clue.

Killing^^^^

You told me they said something was bad what was it then?
